Global Microbial Identifier

What is to be gained

GMI envisions a global system of DNA genome databases for microbial and infectious disease identification and diagnostics. Such a system will benefit those tackling individual problems at the frontline, clinicians, veterinarian, etc., as well as policy-makers, regulators, and industry. By enabling access to this global resource, a professional response on health threats will be within reach of all countries with basic laboratory infrastructure.

To ensure involvement and progress in the GMI initiative, we ask everybody, who wishes to participate as an active member in one or more working groups to accept the charter and sign up for membership.

The GMI Proficiency Test 2017 on next-generation sequencing, focusing on analysis of Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, is now in progress.
